Republican legislators in several states have begun pushing to apportion electoral-college votes by congressional district, a move that has Democrats up in arms. Had a similar scheme been in effect in 2012, nationally or in a handful of key states, Mitt Romney could have won the presidency despite losing the popular vote.

When does the corruption of Democracy end with today's Right Wing Republicans. Voter Suppression didn't win the election for them, so now they want to rig the Electoral College in their favor. President Reagan and President George H. Bush Sr. would have nothing to do with today's Plutocrats.Response to The GOP Plan to Take the Electoral-Vote-Rigging Scheme National: Republican legislators in several states have begun pushing to apportion electoral-college votes by congressional district, a move that has Democrats up in arms.

They don't CARE what people think of them, they just don't CARE ....they want control anyway they can get it. and are willing to kick democracy out of the country. |
